What do you think is Hannibal Lecter's net worth?

*deep inhale* okay. Let’s assume Hannibal is of celebrity status after his incarceration. I’m thinking, if someone were to make a true crime documentary show/movie about ‘Hannibal the Cannibal’, wouldn’t that earn them millions of dollars? I’m not from the west, I have no idea how much a dollar’s worth in the American economy so I’ll randomly say it earns them ~5-20 million usd. Let’s also consider the true crime podcasts, youtube essays/rhetorics, social media posts, blogs, news articles, academic publications, merchandise etc. None of this money’s going to him of course, but Hannibal’s worth probably ~30 million economically.

Can you already tell I haven’t studied economics past 10th grade? But in fannibals’ hearts, Hannibal’s worth billions anyway <3
